Happy All! How’s your week? Some good news! I got my test results and no issues were found as a result of my foot injury meds. Either my body didn’t know how to metabolsim the meds or they were conflicting with another medication. In any case, I’m not taking them anymore. I am sticking to ibuprofen as needed!
Last weekend Mom gifted me this adorable heart muffin baking pan. I had fun baking a few different recipes with it for Valentine’s Day. One was these cute, little heart shaped Blueberry Banana Oat Muffins. Well, admittedly they weren’t little! As a matter of fact, they were thicker and heartier than I expected. These are just as good as adorable and only 100 calories per muffin! Say what?!?
During the week, I don’t have time to make breakfast at home. I always have fresh fruit and a boiled egg packed for when I get to the office in the morning. Breakfast is important so don’t skimp on it!
Then I have a mid-morning snack usually a granola or fiber bar. Sometimes I like to substitute my store-bought bars with freshly made bars. These freeze well too. Sometimes I freeze half the batch so I won’t eat them all at once! A few weeks later when I’m bored of my store-bought bars, I have oat muffins waiting for me.

These muffins look wonderful Megan! They’d be a perfect healthy mid-morning snack and I love that they’re in heart shapes. I totally need a muffin tin like that!
You should get one! They’re nice because you don’t have to use the paper muffin liners and with the silicone they slide out nicely! My Mom bought it at Michael’s.
That heart baking muffin tray is so adorable! i am SO glad your test came out ok and everything is fine!! Have a great weekend!
Thanks Britt, you too!
I would to make these someday.
